Nick Pellow commented on LUCENE-1769:
-------------------------------------
bq. we have some "untested" code parts (because the methods are never called by
core).
Are these untested parts in the test cases? To generate the code coverage of an
application, the test cases don't need to be instrumented. Instrumentation of
tests cases is needed only for "per-test coverage", which you may not need for
your regression tests
bq. so the linkage in the clover reports between tests and source code are
completely broken.
In what way is it broken? Are the test method names missing, or do you have
duplicate test methods? There should be one testMethod listed for each test run
that occured.
bq. Is there any possibility to also fold in the coverage of the backwards
tests, but without linking the test source code to it?
I'm guessing that not instrumenting your old tests should do what you want.
bq. Should we generate two clover reports (one for core, one for backwards)?
This is also an option. Clover2 will link the reports together if you generate
them in the same <clover-report/> block.

> Project: Lucene - Java
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build

> Reporter: Uwe Schindler

> This is a followup for
> [http://www.lucidimagination.com/search/document/6248d6eafbe10ef4/build_failed_in_hudson_lucene_trunk_902]
> The problem with clover running on hudson is, that it does not instrument all
> tests ran. The autodetection of clover 1.x is not able to find out which
> files are the correct tests and only instruments the backwards test. Because
> of this, the current coverage report is only from the backwards tests running
> against the current Lucene JAR.
> You can see this, if you install clover and start the tests. During test-core
> no clover data is added to the db, only when backwards-tests begin, new files
> are created in the clover db folder.
> Clover 2.x supports a new ant task, <testsources> that can be used to specify
> the files, that are the tests. It works here locally with clover 2.4.3 and
> produces a really nice coverage report, also linking with test files work, it
> tells which tests failed and so on.
> I will attach a patch, that changes common-build.xml to the new clover
> version (other initialization resource) and tells clover where to find the
> tests (using the test folder include/exclude properties).
> One problem with the current patch: It does *not* instrument the backwards
> branch, so you see only coverage of the core/contrib tests. Getting the
> coverage also from the backwards tests is not easy possible because of two
> things:
> - the tag test dir is not easy to find out and add to <testsources> element
> (there may be only one of them)
> - the test names in BW branch are identical to the trunk tests. This
> completely corrupts the linkage between tests and code in the coverage report.
> In principle the best would be to generate a second coverage report for the
> backwards branch with a separate clover DB. The attached patch does not
> instrument the bw branch, it only does trunk tests.
